Study Type

Conditions

Acute Pancreatitis Pancreatic Pseudocyst Pancreatic Necrosis

Summary

Acute pancreatitis is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders requiring hospitalization worldwide. Pancreatic fluid collections can occur as a consequence of acute and chronic pancreatitis and can result in significant morbidity and mortality, including significant abdominal pain, gastric outlet obstruction, biliary obstruction, organ failure, persistent unwellness, infection and sepsis. Symptomatic pancreatic fluid collections require treatment, and endoscopic drainage is considered standard of care. The aim of this study is to evaluate the treatment outcomes in patients undergoing standard of care, endoscopic treatment of pancreatic fluid collections.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This is a registry study — meaning it collects data from real patients — for people who are having an endoscopic procedure to drain fluid collections around the pancreas. These collections (called pseudocysts or walled-off necrosis) often develop after a severe bout of pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). Doctors use a flexible camera and tools to drain them without open surgery. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 years or older - You are scheduled for or have received endoscopic (non-surgical) treatment for a fluid collection near your pancreas **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are under 18 years old - Your fluid collection is being treated by surgery rather than endoscopy - You did not receive endoscopic treatment for the collection Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
